National Historic Trails Office Regions 6, 7, & 8 Digital Media Experience

The National Trails Office Regions 6, 7, & 8 (NTIR) administers 10 National Historic Trails and the Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program. NTIR staff works together to provide an exceptional digital media experience across:

• 14 websites (NPS.gov)

• 10 trail pages on the NPS mobile application

• 10+ social media accounts on a variety of platforms.

In 2024, NTIR reached an audience of over 2.5 million digital visitors through website and app content. NTIR social media accounts share about the trails with over 100,000 trail fans (followers) and NTIR posts reach millions of social media visitors.

NTIR manages a total of 14 NPS.gov websites.

This graphic depicts the websites managed by NTIR with boxes representing a webpage with text that indicates the type of website: Office, Park, Subject Site, and Alternative Language Site.

NTIR manages:

• One Organizational (Office) Website

• Ten Park Websites for the 10 National Historic Trails administered by NTIR

• Two Subject Sites

• One Alternative language website for El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro NHT

Within the NTIR Office website, lives the Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program (ROSI) which has unique content in a similar park website format.

In FY25, NTIR will begin building its second alternative language website. This website will be a Spanish version of El Camino Real de los Tejas NHT. Another part of this project will be the development of a Travel Itinerary, similar to the two subject sites managed by NTIR. This new travel itinerary will live within the current El Camino Real de los Tejas NHT park website rather than having its own subject site.
